It is intriguing that the size of the functional genome (as measured by the amount of constrained sequence or the number of coding genes) varies rather little between organisms with apparently very different complexities. To make the question more concrete, we can focus on gene expression. An ...
Subpopulations of soluble, misfolded proteins can bypass chaperones within cells. The extent of this phenomenon and how it happens at the molecular level are unknown. Through a meta-analysis of the experimental literature we find that in all quantitative protein refolding studies there is always a s...
So, rather than be vague and mysterious about what “everything” means, you will do much better by developing a number of “decision metrics” to guide you as you read. You can do this in the form of settingproper learning goalsand using a well-formedlearning cycle. In other words, se...
You see, planaria can reproduce asexually, meaning that one worm can soon become hundreds.And if you do see hundreds of planaria, then chances are you had a helping hand in the matter…Black and brown planaria flatworms feast on waste. Biofilm, uneaten fish food and even poop – it’...
These observations reveal that proteins with highly similar sequences do not necessarily perform the same function. Beyond these considerations, the vast bioinformatic picture that we have access to through our study of extant organisms is far from complete. Most organisms that have ever lived in ...
As Tetris players do with falling blocks, Prabhu will sometimes see transistors in his sleep. “I’ve often had it where the best ideas happen on a Friday night,when I’m literally dreaming about it,” Prabhu said. 中文[3/10]: 我在Nvidia只见过一个看起来不开心的人,那就是质量控制...
39. The fear of living organisms is becoming more worrisome. 40. Preventing the increase in children's fear of living creatures is also important for conserving biodiversity. 41. Research shows that more and deeper experience people have with nature will help save it. 42. Though humans na...
the results have a minimum of variability in terms of the number of estimated clusters, or samples belonging to the same or different group. When it is important to identify the correct number of clusters, as in tumor stratification, it is crucial to rely on algorithms that reproduce the same...
Also, different biases in the control period do not influence the annual mean climate change signal significantly, as can be seen in the case of the Africa/West Asia overlapping region, where we saw a larger bias in the West Asia control run compared to observations than in the African ...
but don't fix those at the same time. Attempt to employ the scientific method of changing one thing and only one thing at a time. The best process for this is to be able to easily reproduce the bug, then put your fix in place, and then rerun the program and observe that the bug ...
